Great edvice, Ranger! Meowmy iz normly cairful bout how she proaches me, acause I get scared E-Z acause I can't heer hur comin up on me, but she jus furgot dis time, I ges. I'll trie your "make guilty" trick, an see if I get any treets!Originally Posted by emmysamson
What works for me when the humans are mean, or makes me move when I'm comfortable, is I totally ignore them. Mommy will start to feel so guilty, that she will give me some Pounce to make up with me. (Sometimes I do this and she didn't even do anything wrong)
The best way to make the human feel guilty??? When you know that they can only sit for a couple of minutes, climb right up on their lap, and get right to sleep. They will feel so bad about having to get up, that they'll give me extra rubs or a treat. At least that's what works in my house, since my mommy loves having me on her lap, at least that's what she always says. Maybe try that little tip and see if it works for you all.Good luck!

And pass any suggestions you may have to teach those humans a lesson about scaring ya. Cause my daddy thinks it's really funny to scare me, too, Annie Oakley. It makes me real nervous-----Ranger
Hi deer Emmy,Originally Posted by emmysamson
As a fellow "big-boned" kitty, I totally understand. I would just turn my nose up at anything that he tries to give me....even if it's my personal favorite. Then, when he's not looking, steal something off his plate.....or better yet, put some of your food in his! Like my mommy always tells my daddy...let's see you get down on all fours and see how fat you look!
So, the next time your daddy gets down on the floor to play with you, bring out the lite stuff and offer it to him.

Dere Lukey, least he GIVs it to you, my meomwy used to HIDE kibble for Mr. Butch to find so he wood have to get exercise lookin for it when he needed to lose wate! I glad that at least the food tastes good
When my claws get trimmed, my mommy has my daddy hold me while she clips them......and my daddy doesn't wash his hands first, and they're really sweaty!!!!Originally Posted by carolcat
Ok, now I gots a major complaint! This morning my meowmy took me to the BAD PLACE and I gots MANHANDLED and a SHOT TOO!And meomwy LET THEM WIN!! When I was fitin the bad man and his helper girl, meomwy din't even HELP me when they ganged up on me. And these worthless humans say that they LOVE US??!! What a pile of, er, waste! AND she let them CLIP my CLAWS!!, that was the final outrage. Meomwy bettr watch it tho, I still gots my razor teeths and I NOT afraid to use them!
I guess I'm kinda lucky, in that my mommy has my bowl full, usually, all the time. Now, sometimes, the bowl gets kinda low, and I start getting worried, so then I'm forced to eat the food off the floor......I put the food there for such emergencies....though my Mommy keeps sweeping it up.
You get the wet stuff EVERY night????!!!!!!????? Oh, man!!! I am sooooooooo jealous!! I only get the wet stuff about once a month, or whenever I've managed to make mommy feel guilty!!!! I have a grievance to file!!!!!!!!Originally Posted by katachtig
We always haf the dry stuff wich is ok in a pinch. But I want the gud wet stuff. And meomy won't give it to me until 6:00.I don't tink kittys shuld lern to tell time.
